Magnetude

The real story with Magnetude is distance. Over races from a mile and six furlongs to two miles, he has won 2 of 5 races — a 40% win rate that stands out sharply against his overall 22% record across all distances. This isn't just a minor preference; it's a significant advantage. He clearly relishes the stamina required for longer races and seems to build into races rather than peak early. His first win came at Wolverhampton in March, but it's the Chester victory in May that shows he can win beyond the bottom tier of racing, and that form held up enough to land a second and a couple of placings in the races since. James Owen's Newmarket yard has been prolific this season with over 200 winners, so Magnetude is in capable hands. At just three years old with clear evidence of what suits him, there's still room for this horse to progress — particularly if his the yard keep him pointed at those longer, stamina-testing races where he has proven himself most effective.
